FUAD: Distributed a total of 2,357 ready to eat rations in Maktb Khald by IHPF of its total of 2,400 rations. Further food assistance will be provided pending availability of funding/resources. OMDA: In newly liberated villages, OMDA informed partners there is no support (Milla Abdallha, Adres Qubas, Adres Xazal, Hndyi ). OMDA raised the issue that it s important to diversify assistance, thus not only focusing on distributions but also livelihoods. Partners shared information on IDPs stranded in the buffer zone (Daquq) where agencies do not have access. Some Immediate Response Rations were provided by FUAD in the buffer zone, in coordination with the MoMD and protection Cluster partners. Food needs remain critical for families in the buffer zone.
